Finished Nega0, it had one of the most interesting plot I seen in an eroge in a while.
The final could have been stronger though and the gameplay was a chore.
But I really liked what the plot did during the middle part, it would be hard to talk about it without spoiling the game heavily but Nega0 is a very interesting meta take on the conventions you usually see in that kind of stories.

The writing is also generally pretty good, it's very apparent that the writer is a woman though and she really gave priority to the heroines, well it's not without a reason either.
That kind of josei like writing is probably not for everyone, people who read Startrain will know what to expect though and unlike it Nega0 actually has a very interesting plot and isn't teenage romance forever (well it has a lot too, especially during the first route)

Well the main problem with Nega0 is that the first route give a pretty wrong idea of what it really is, I'd advice anyone who would try it to at least get on the second route.
It's not an amazing eroge but it's definitely one of the most interesting one I read in a while.

And now to finish Hapymaher
